"Xiao Na, I understand that in your opinion, going to a developed place like Mingzhu is a better choice to see the world and learn more advanced cultural knowledge, but I want to tell you that in the entire Zhao family, no one looks down on foreign things!" Ye Fei said with some emotion.

It was only after marrying into the Zhao family that she realized there were such special families in the world. Her father-in-law is now a senior general, and her mother-in-law retired with the salary of a vice-minister.

Although her own mother-in-law is just an ordinary working-class retired woman, as a mother who gave birth to eleven children for her father-in-law, her father-in-law would not treat her badly even if he were an ordinary citizen, not to mention that the two of them have been through ups and downs for nearly thirty years?

And there's another point. He knows that everyone in the Zhao family is very powerful. This is modern society. If it were in the past, this family would definitely be a family of military generals!

The most important thing is that although this family are all highly skilled in martial arts, they are not weak in culture. On the contrary, each of them is very strong. As long as they are willing to learn something, they can master it.

Take Wei Pingkai for example. When he was a child, he liked to carve stones, wood and so on. For this reason, he destroyed a lot of precious wood and various materials at home. Later, his father-in-law found a master who knew carving. He learned carving from him, but after only three years, he had exhausted the master's skills. In the end, he could only carve a piece of jade that he couldn't even carve well in the master's shocked eyes.

After that, Wei Ping became interested in mathematics. Now he is a junior in college. He has taught himself all the university courses and is delving into more advanced things. Wei Ping is only 22 years old this year!

Even Wei Guo, who just turned 21 this year, has completed the course. Now if he wants, he can apply for a bachelor's degree!

After all, Ye Fei didn't see these with her own eyes. Although they sounded impressive, she didn't feel deeply touched. What really made Ye Fei realize how terrifying the Zhao family was was Zhao Weiyang, who lived in the same dormitory with her!

Zhao Weiyang, a 19-year-old who studies history at a normal university, first asked himself why Western sculptures dating back over 2,000 years are still intact, without a trace of weathering or erosion.

This view originally only made Ye Fei curious, because in modern times, everyone generally believed that technology was developed in the West. The West also had a brilliant civilization.

But the more information Wei Yang searched, the more bizarre Western history seemed to him. How could Newton have discovered gravity by having an apple fall on his head, even though there were no apple trees?

Why were Aristotle and other ancient sages of the Renaissance only a few years or even decades earlier than our country's predecessors?

Why is it possible to find immortal things that have been preserved for nearly a thousand years in such a humid and salty place like the Mediterranean coast?

These questions shocked Ye Fei and she also began to doubt like Wei Yang. She also followed Wei Yang to look for more information, but found that it was completely irrelevant!

So Ye Fei also began to change her mind and began to agree that our own things are the best, and that foreign things are not much better, or even worse than our own.

"Sister Fei?" Shi Xiaona's call interrupted Ye Fei's memories.

"What's wrong, Xiaona?" Ye Fei looked confused.

"You haven't answered me yet. Why do people in the Zhao family look down on foreign things?" Although Shi Xiaona didn't know why her sister Fei was distracted, she still repeated her question.

"Because the Zhao family can do well without going abroad! Whether it's my husband Wei Ping or your boyfriend Wei Cheng, they don't need to and are unwilling to go abroad to learn the so-called advanced Western technology!" Ye Fei replied.

"Wei Cheng doesn't need it either? He seems to be studying aircraft engine manufacturing, right? Aren't such technological things more advanced abroad? As long as Wei Cheng goes to study, won't he be more valued when he returns after graduation?" Shi Xiaona was a little confused.

"Xiao Na, you have never been exposed to it before, nor have you been there, so you don't know that if you want to learn those advanced technologies, you need to become a citizen of the country where you are and give up your citizenship. Only then will you be allowed to study, and there will be strict inspections! And does Mingzhu have any high-tech technologies? No, right?" Ye Fei persuaded.

Shi Xiaona was speechless for a moment. She had been living in the mainland before and went to the countryside after graduating from middle school. She didn't know what Ye Fei said!

But my parents told me that if I wanted to learn advanced technology and culture, I had to study abroad. Did they lie to me?

"Xiao Na, I think you should go back and think about it. If you really want to marry Wei Cheng, you should study hard in a domestic university and don't go to Mingzhu. After all, your family's status as a wealthy businessman is very eye-catching. We don't care about this here in recent years, but the Zhao family still needs to pay attention to the impact!" Ye Fei persuaded earnestly.

After hearing what Ye Fei said, Shi Xiaona became even more uneasy. In the end, she really couldn't figure it out, so she could only go home and ask her parents.

After Shi Xiaona relayed Ye Fei's words to her parents, they too fell into deep thought. They had originally thought that their child marrying the city bureau director's child would be a great opportunity for their family, and they thought about paying for their daughter and son-in-law to study abroad. This was a truly rare opportunity!

It's a pity that I didn't expect that people don't care about these things at all. Then what I did was just adding fuel to the fire, wasn't it?

"My daughter, why don't you review for a while so that we can go to university in Peking! Since the Zhao family has enough connections and it is indeed troublesome to go abroad, it is better for you to live a good life in Peking!" Father Shi slapped his thigh, as if he had made some kind of decision.

Shi Xiaona was also shocked by her father's decision. No need to study abroad? Wouldn't all the preparations before then be in vain?

"Dad!" Shi Xiaona actually wanted to fight for it.

"Needless to say, although our family is a wealthy business, we are not as good as the Zhao family. If we want to walk sideways in the small Jiudaowan, we need to look at the faces of the people around us, but the Zhao family can walk sideways in the entire Beiping City. Our family can't compare with them at all! Xiaona, you made the right choice this time!" Father Shi became more and more excited as he spoke.

Shi Xiaona looked at her father's happy expression and couldn't help but think of Yang Shumao. How could that guy marry and have children? It wasn't like she was unwanted.

So the next day, when Shi Xiaona met Wei Cheng again, she told him about her plan to apply to a university in Peking.
